Index to the patron Saints

  In honor of St. Patrick's Day, here is a link to a handy guide to all the Patron Saints in the Catholic religion. I pray to St. Jude and St. Anthony all the time. Erin go bragh everyone!

Here are some of my favorite Patron Saints:

Abdominal pains- St. Elmo (really)

Nightmares - St. Raphael the Archangel

Unhappy marriages - St. Gengolf

Mentally ill - St. Dymphna

Pets - St. Antony the Abbott

Princesses - St. Adelaide

Teachers - St. John Baptist de la Salle

Snake bite victims - St. Hilary

I'm confused by St. Clare of Assisi. Did she write for tv back in her day? And what kind of a tv would they have had then? And what kind of reception would the tv's have had? And what kind of a show would she have written for...was she the Mother Angelica of her time...or the Carrie Bradshaw?

Oh KSQFAN, reveal thyself. I can't figure out which of my many friends you are, though you sound darn familiar.
